All Episodes

July 11, 2022 • 41 mins

Dick Turpin steps out of the shadows as a housebreaker for the Essex Gang and takes to the highways, terrorising travellers on the roads around London, unleashing a crime spree that puts his name on the nations’ lips. The notorious highwayman will stop at nothing to stay one step ahead of the law – even cold-blooded murder. So how is it that this villain is still remembered as the romantic ‘Gentleman of the Road’? We continue to unravel the dark truth that lurks beneath the popular myth. A Noiser production, written by Danny Marshall. With thanks to James Sharpe, Professor Emeritus at the University of York, and author of Dick Turpin: The Myth of the English Highwayman. This is Part 2 of 3.

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
